We only spent one night at "Alice's Secret" since our plan was not to spend too much time in A.S., but rather focus on the amazing landmarks of the MacDonnell Ranges, Kings Canyon and Uluru/Kata Tjuta, of course, but if we'd had more time I could perfectly imagine having spent more time in this hostel which is quite cosy with nice individually arranged rooms, a little pool, hammocks, canopy swings as well as a well-equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. Short walk to the city centre (5-8 mins)

Definitely one of the best "large" hostels I've ever stayed in. It is very centrally located in Melbourne and offers lots of opportunities that might even prevent you from exploring the city such as the beautiful rooftop terrace with jacuzzi or the large and well-equipped kitchen where you can cook your own meal instead of having to eat out every day in pricey Melbourne. Only point of criticism: wifi could be free at least for those who pay the add-on for a private room.

We couldn't turn off the heating in our room, so during the night it was incredibly hot, which was a pity, because the room itself was nice.
Concerning breakfast, don't expect too much. Just toast, jam and peanut butter. Not even juice...other hostels in Canada offer more in this respect.

We are sorry about the heating problems you had in your room!! A quick visit to reception would have solved your problem. As for breakfast, we alternate between pancakes and toast, and we also give free coffee until 11am and free tea all day. I hope you have the chance to enjoy these perks in a future visit.
